BTG with an epic rant that is on. the. mark. Also, I use the charger every day with a 120V outlet.

So.....the issue was the dryer room had 120v So when I had the electriican come in, I asked them to install a Nema 14-50 and they did....and sold me an adapter to the dryer to fit the Nema 14-50 Hope that explains the weird set up in the dryer room. (Note, not feeling to happy with the...

New owner here. I have a NEMA 14-50 in my washer room. It makes the most economic sense for me to use that outlet and run an extension cord to my car rather than install the wall charger. But I'd rather not have to plug and unplug the outlet between the charging cord and the dryer. What is...

So the reason I bought my 7-seater Y was because I have a special needs child with behavioral issues. It's been five years since he and his brother could sit in the same car, as his younger brother is too small to sit in the front seat, and the older brother would reach out and go after said...

This proved to be the answer. I moved the extender away from the brick to an outlet near windows and the connection was quite strong. Software downloaded and will be installed overnight. Thank you everyone!

@night_fury - did you get the text?

Good point about the TV, it's not in use but may be plugged in. Worth seeing if that's an impact. The main router is away from any electronics - it's in the same room as the washer and dryer. The wifi extender tho is in the kitchen.

Yeah the extender is at 2.4, I checked. Wifi core router (Xfinity) says indicates to me it is broadcasting at both.

Thanks. Problem - no garage and no porch, so putting something outside isn't a great idea TBH.

So you put the extender outside the house? My thinking was having it inside the house to boost the signal outside, since I don't have a covering outside to my car.

Hello, I purchased a standard wifi extender via Amazon but even tho from a distance it doesn't seem that far from the car, I worry that due to the fact that i live in a brick house it is why the signal is so weak to my Y in the driveway. Anyone know of a real good Wifi extender?

It has arrived! My first 7-seat car was accepted on Friday. When I showed it to my 8-year-old son, he said "this car is the future!" He was allowed to name it - he called it "Speed X". He also loved the seven seats and started talking about all his friends who could be in the car now. Pick...

With pick up scheduled for this Friday, took the "last one" photo

Delivery day scheduled March 4 😍

Question - I would like to get a personalized license plate with my car. Has anyone done this with the purchase of a new car?

VIN assigned. Fremont build. Four day window now (Mar 3-7) It's getting real. :eek:

Great to hear.....my worry is the "Vin on Monday Car on Tuesday Loan approval on Saturday" scenario

So.....I got an email from someone at Tesla asking me to make sure my payment method was up to date. Alas, I had set to pay in full and now I can't switch back to loan. That being said, is it safe to assume that if a human with a real address reaches out to you that the window is in pretty...

I'm not going to be dragged into turning this into a political debate. I will say I agree that this is a pro-Ford/GM/Union thing and not an anti-Tesla thing and I will not speak further on this. NOW PLEASE LETS TALK ABOUT THE BUILDING IN TEXAS

For the first time I moved to a two week window o_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_O

Not to turn this into a political debate but it is the bill from the left that is trying to give us Tesla owners a $7500 tax rebate and proposing investing $5B in electric infrastructure Tesla is neither a left or right thing.... Now....has there been anything new learned from the drone videos?

This is amazing. The current location used to be a Toyota dealership. I bought two cars there. Each time it was a major pain in the ass with all of the paperwork and last-minute selling. Nice to hear that it's not a stressful experience

Cool! Let us know how your experience is with them.

Speculation: Texas could start production of Model Y in 7-10 days https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-giga-texas-model-y-production-start-date-tentative/

My guess is that you and me (Philly) will be built at the same time as that would make the most sense operationally. My EDD range is close to that, and has been for a while, so from my end I think we just hang tight and pray :)

Out of curiosity, what did the tweet say?

Somehow mine disappeared too. Odd.

All the more reason to be patient - ventilated seats https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-model-3-model-y-cooled-seats-owners-manual/ This is the feature I put down on the spreadsheet

Per Teslarati reports from the Giga Texas solar supplier is that operations could start this week. Me - I'll wait a few more weeks if it means a Texas build

Same specs as mine except for interior and tow, I bought a day later and live on the other coast. My dates are similar to yours. Given everything that is happening in this thread I am treating my EDD as a fairytale until I get a text that says it's here. I had a temporary bump up to November...

Honestly, I think unless you have a VIN I would recommend being skeptical of any delivery estimates. I need the VIN to get insurance on the car, so I can't even take delivery on the car until I have the VIN and go through the process of insuring the car. I realize there are some states where...

PICS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN :P

For interest - this was posted two days ago by the IIHS - side crash test

Agreed on steady state. There will be ones sent from both for a while. But in early 2022 I think it is anticipated they will start shipping out of Texas. And there are people like me who would be happy to have the coin land on Texas. (Also would love to see them upgrade to the Yoke on the...

Texas Built Y would 100% come from the GigaPress with single body construction. Fremont would mean it's possibly built the old way. The Fremont factory was a former Toyota factory (used to make the Matrix, interestingly enough the last new car I bought) so the construction line is really...

Man.....your specs are similar to mine except I ordered 9 days later, plus tow and FSD....and I'm just across the river.....DON'T GET MY HOPES UP HOMBRE 🤣

Yes, picking up in Devon. Also......Tesla is getting close to producing Model Ys out of Texas So if moving back a month means I get my wheels from Texas, definitely worth it

My 7 seater just got pushed back a essentially a month today

Dude, never crossed my mind there might be a meter to register something like that. Totally awesome. Might do that first, see what my results are, and then go with a game plan from there. Thank you!!!!

It's classified per the tax bill - I believe it's the NHTSA classification, but whatever agency they are using it is classified as SUV. Bearded Tesla Guy in his videos has quoted the actual agency.

All versions of the Model Y qualify as it has been classified as a light SUV and therefore is at the $80k and under. Even with FSD you should qualify.

Wait a sec. From what I read on the site the insurance card has to show the VIN number - as in its got to be the insurance for the car itself. I can't do that until I have the VIN, which I don't have. Are you saying to upload our current insurance for the car we are driving today?

The point being, if there's an agreement, then that is.a very positive sign that would but this into the "close" not "far away" category even if it's not the first bill being passed

I feel like I just ordered and it has gone up $4k since

My delivery date was steady from Nov 14-Dec 12 for a while but today moved back to mid-jan to February I need to back to not caring when it will arrive 😭

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I am curious as to the level of protection the roof has. And am now considering getting tint for the remaining windows to block UV. I was curious as to the best UV blockage per dollar material out there.

For my upcoming Model Y, the #1 concern I have is UV rays. Any tinting experts understand how it handles out of the box and what solutions provide the maximum UV protection? I am more concerned about UV than heat - I have very fair skin and a family history of skin cancer - so I'd like to set...

The $8k covers all but $2k of my FSD. Or you can look at it as covering the sales tax, fees, and then some. It's not trivial

I'm torn. I'm now excited that it could be coming sooner rather than later. But that rebate would be huge.
